There's a brand new version of Voltaire out! All of the issues listed below should now be patched!!! There are three common issues that have been brought up. I'll make some fixes for them in the future, but for now here are some workarounds: Issue 1 - When I build the index letters are out of order - The application doesn't understand lowercase titles when it sorts. Make sure all of your titles are uppercased and it will work Issue 2 - My csv won't import, when I try to import the dialogue stays open and when I refresh the page no data is there. - There's something up with your CSV format/syntax. If you have "," characters in your data it will break your CSV. There may be some other weird characters that are breaking the import feature. Generally, a find and replace on commas fixes the issue, but you can step through the process by importing your csv in chunks until it breaks. ie import the first 10 lines, then the first 20 lines. When it breaks you'll see what went wrong and can find and replace that error across you CSV. Issue 3 - Build index orders words under wrong titles. - Right now you need to have a title with every letter A,B,C... represented in your index. Sort works by ordering and then incrementing the letters. It'll get out of order if you don't have a given letter in your index. For now just add that letter (ie U) with a blank description to your index and it will fix the problem. Fix coming in the future. Also, feel free to DM me on Twitter if you're having trouble. I'll share my email address with you so you can send me your datasheet. I'd be happy to troubleshoot it for you. :) - @0sm0s1z

No limits on size, but it’s possible you have a weird character somewhere that’s breaking the build. I’d copy the thing to excel, and then. Delete it in the app section by section until you find the offending bit. Once you fix that you ought to be able to export the whole thing. (You can copy/paste between Voltaire and other spreadsheets by the way).

I understand. This is a known issue. The import tool is working, but it's not particularly smart. Your CSV is improperly formated. There are likely special characters in your csv (such as additional commas) that are breaking the import. The next version will add additional quality of life feature around this, but for now there are two options: import your index one section at a time untill you find the error or add a bunch of lines by clicking add row and then paste your index in from cells in Excel/sheets.

@@MatthewToussain Hey Matthew, Firstly, thank you for this tool and all the work i can see you've put in to further enhance it. I've been using the new version but i'm having trouble when it comes to exporting to Word. I imported my CSV file without issues but when i click on the "cog" none of the buttons on the next page work. I.e. when i click "export", "Build Index" or even "Templates" nothing happens. Any ideas? Thanks in advance.

Solved: You have to click on the "Build Index" button on the top right hand corner and select your options and hit generate. Sorted. Big thanks again for the tool.

Great idea, but too many issues to have to try to walk through all those lines to figure out issues. I thought I had it when I had a comma with a space in front of it, but that didn't work. I tried 6 lines and it didn't work. Then I tried line by line and it would work with those 6 lines. Then I would try the 6 lines again and it wouldn't work!!! Frustrating to say the least :((

Had a weird numbering scheme on a few numbers and changed that and allowed me to import. Now it won't let me export. It just gives the # at the top of the page.

jose garcia it did just get a major update! I’m working on a new KZbin video right now, but here’s a link to the livestream I did on it yesterday. twitter.com/0sm0s1z/status/1248703144722198528?s=21 The short answer to your question is this. You can now import from the main index creation page (next to the log out button). You can also now import excel spreadsheets too so you don’t need to make and paste raw csv anymore. Voltaire can now smartly read real spreadsheet data! Enjoy!

@@MatthewToussain Thanks for the reply. I really appreciate the time and effort you put on this. I notice the different options for import and output, but for some reason is not working. I tried uploading .csv / .xlsx with no success. Finally, I tried manually with the add row option 440 times to be able to copy and paste from the sheet. Then for output I notice that its supposed to have different options like DOC PDF JSON CSV. I tried those to test but it doesn’t matter what I choose, it’s always a .doc output. When I check the word doc is missing some items after the letter X and I don’t see the items with numbers. I really like this tool because it really helps for formatting an index. I guess I will wait till is ready again.

Anyone successfully importing a csv file? I'm using chrome on windows. Understand there is no close button, but when you refresh screen, it doesn't keep you're data. This is a great tool. It will be even better with a close button.

The window will close if the data import was successful. I imagine there's something off about your car format? Check the GitHub issues page to see if that helps otherwise message me on Twitter and I'd be happy to troubleshoot your csv for you.
